Abstract

The plant location problem has been studied for many years. Yet, a number of important real world issues and variants have not been investigated or resolved and merit further attention and research. This paper describes new statements of the problem (1) with new and different objectives, (2) with multiple products and multiple machines in which new models of production are considered, and (3) with spatial interactions.
